PENDULUM

Despite thinking that this was yet another clever ad for an upcoming Tekken title, it turns out that Tekken is actually the name of a TV talent with a love for animation. Its kind of odd, because after double checking, there's no other Japanese definitions for Tekken other than 'Iron Fist.' Oh well.

Pendulum is a 1,038 frame short with a unique them centered around a pendulum, which acts as both a framing device and means of narrating the passage of time. Its a heartfelt story, mainly centered around the ups and downs of two lovers over the course of their lives set to Muse's Exogenesis Symphony Part 3.
